# QuickStart API Assertions for Header Contains, Header Value, JSON Path Exists, JSON Validation

Quality Modeller has now expanded its capabilities to include a more extensive collection of API assertions straight out-of-the-box.

These new assertions enable the testing of API headers and JSON data returned from API requests, providing a more comprehensive set of tools for API testing.

To utilise the new **API Assertions,** open an existing **API Module collection** and edit the **API Function** you want to add the assertions to. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/77f722a6-2d0a-49fa-8074-572515a6c4b8/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202023-09-18%20150432.png)

In the **Edit Function window**, open the **API Requests tab** and then the **Assertions SubTab.![](https://cdn.document360.io/77f722a6-2d0a-49fa-8074-572515a6c4b8/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202023-09-18%20150420.png)**

In the **Assertions SubTab**, you can now add a range of assertions to run on your API Request execution, including Header Contains, Header Value, JSON Path Exists and more!
